Events Welcome! 12,000 SF Mansion w/ 2 Pools & Lakeview

Host your next event, reunion, or large family vacation at this exquisite Chicagoland estate! With over 12,000 sqft across 3 levels of expansive living & entertaining spaces, 8 sleeping areas, and 8 baths (6 full/2 half), the home comfortably accommodates up to 24 guests. Set on nearly 10 acres of level ground, the estate features a long list of luxe amenities including amazing upper and lower private heated pools connected by a waterfall, hot tub, theatre room, a full gym, 2 kitchens, and gorgeous views of 2 lakes.

THE SPACE
Enter the three-story residence via the grand foyer with sweeping spiral staircase on the main level where the social spaces impress with easy flow between rooms. You'll love the expansive open floor plan with high ceilings and light-filled rooms graced by windows overlooking the waterfall pool.

The massive chefā€™s kitchen is a cook's dream with 2 islands, ample counter space, and a deluxe housewares package. Host business dinners or formal parties in the elegant dining room that is accessed through the butlerā€™s pantry and retire to the living room after dinner for drinks by the fireplace. The residenceā€™s incredible primary suite is also on this floor and features a king-size bed, separate sitting area, and gorgeous bath with a jacuzzi tub, double sink vanity, and impressive walk-in double shower with 2 rain shower heads. There is a private office, laundry room, and 2 Ā½ baths conveniently located on this level as well.

Head up the grand staircase to the 2nd floor which features 3 king ensuite bedrooms and additional office space on the landing. The ground floor walk-out level is a fantastic place to gather with a billiard room, theatre room, wet bar, 2nd kitchen, family room, gym, 5th king bedroom, and 1.5 bathrooms.

If you are looking to host a wedding or special event, our 10-acres of level fields with lake views are the perfect site for hosting. Have a cocktail reception by the pool or set up specialty tenting on the grounds for large dinners. The estate is great for getaways, too, with our 2-level waterfall pools, hot tub, multiple terraces & verandas, a covered patio, and BBQ grill. The spacious yards offer plenty of room for kids to run or enjoy a game of football, soccer, or frisbee.

Getting here is easy, too!

Family Reunion
We were looking for a spot where we could hang out as a family of 16 coming from 7 spots around the US and Canada. This house worked well with plenty of bedrooms for adult children couples with ensuite bathrooms. Large bunk room for children, in door game/activity space and lots of outdoor space with a great pool for activity. The kids loved the over-the-top palace feel of the mansion. Kitchens were very functional as we ate every meal in. Lots of places to sit and eat. Company was very good about communicating and responding quickly.

Off the beaten path!
Our Kingsmen volleyball team had the perfect place to unwind after some grueling matches. We had a theatre to use to scout our opponents and a jacuzzi to help the soreness go away. The guys were able to spread out and get their studies done while being on the road... I even found out I have a few guys that can play the piano! With trips every year to the area, we hope to continue the partnership and be back in 2025! The place was perfect! (other, doesn't work above in the field choice)
